I lived there until it was sold to new owner (July 2022 I think). So I can really tell about my experience up to that point. Management was AWESOME! The neighborhood was great. Very quiet and they have a trash concierge (used to be $25 a month) that they can pick up trash that you leave in front of your apartment door daily. My packages were never stolen. Check-out was on the high side for me though
I moved in a little over a year and a half ago. For the first year it was great, the location was good, management was very attentive, rent was reasonable for the area. Then the building was sold to a new owner in July. We received a notification that the new owner has leased the building out from under the existing residence to Seattle Children’s. We were told we were “welcome to stay” if we wanted to pay significantly above market value for our current units. Things have continued to go downhill since then. I received a notice of rent increase increasing my rent by 50% bringing the total of my one bedroom apartment to $2400. Then they shut off the secured package lockers. In all of the time I have lived here I have never once had an issue. However, in the past month I’ve had 3 packages stolen. When I told management I was promised that they were building a secure package room. I’ve seen no evidence of the construction nor have I been given a timeline for when that will open. It’s so sad to see a place that was once really great and a place I wanted to stay at permanently go downhill so quickly.
